How does parachute at the back of the car helps a speeding car to slow down and stop quickly?
When the parachute is deployed at the back of the car, it creates drag force by catching air. This drag force acts in the opposite direction of the car's motion, slowing it down. By increasing the drag force, the parachute helps the speeding car slow down and stop more quickly.
What force could be added to slow a car down when it is going down a ramp?
Friction between the tires and the road surface can slow down a car going down a ramp. The brakes can also be applied to introduce additional friction and slow the car further. Additionally, aerodynamic drag can play a minor role in slowing down the car at higher speeds.
What factor causes the motion of a car to slow down as it is moving up the slope of a mountain?
The main factor that causes the motion of a car to slow down as it moves up a slope is gravity. Gravity acts in the opposite direction to the car's motion, pulling it back down the slope. This force opposes the car's forward movement, making it slow down.
How does gravity slow down a car?
Gravity itself does not slow things down (the Moon still keeps going round the Earth and the Earth still keeps going round the Sun). It's friction that slows things down. I have to say that there is likely to be more friction if there's more gravity but that's a secondary effect.
Suppose that you are in a moving car and the motor stops. You step on the brakes and slow the car to half speed. If you release your foot will the car speed up or continue at half speed or slow down?
Assuming you are not pressing down on the gas, when you release the pedal, the car will slow down over time and evetualy come to a stop. Unless you are going down a hill, in which case you will speed up.
What happens when one force is bigger?
it will slow the car down
What force caused the brakes on the car to slow you down?
Friction

What are two ways that a force can change speed?
A force can change the speed of an object by accelerating it, such as pushing a car to make it move faster. Alternatively, a force can also decelerate an object by applying a braking force to slow it down.
What will slow a dragster car down?
A parachute.
Why does your car slow down uphill?
Gravity
What forces would try to slow down a racing car?
Air resistance, also known as drag, will act as a force that slows down a racing car. Additionally, friction between the tires and the road surface will also contribute to slowing down the car. Other factors such as inclines or curves in the track can also create forces that work against the car's speed.
